  • Lost University is an interactive multimedia experience which was launched at Comic-Con 2009. The Lost University website can be found at lostuniversity.org. The website promotes a fictitious university through which fans can enroll in courses that relate to content relevant to Lost. According to the website, Lost University was established in 2004. The course content is accessible to those who own the Season 5 Blu-ray set, via BD-Live. Some support materials will also be available through iPhone applications that will be available for download. Unlike previous Lost interactive experiences, which are considered alternate reality games, Lost University unashamedly admits its connection to the show, failing to establish a solid "fourth wall" common to ARGs. The professors and instructors include guest speakers from the cast and crew of Lost, as well as consultants used on the show for classes on topics such as hieroglyphs. Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment General Manager Lori MacPherson said of the project, "A lot of the things in Lost University play into things that will happen in the final season, you just won't realize it until you start watching the final season." [1] On January 14, 2013, an email was sent out to enrolled students to announce that "due to budgetary restrictions, the cost of living, and other variables" the Lost University would close its doors on January 31, 2013.
